Lexus LX Height Control Restricted Warning

My 2022 Lexus LX with a gasoline engine is giving me a headache. I'm getting a 'Height Control Restricted' warning light, and the low beams are shining too low. The vehicle isn't sitting level – the front axle seems higher than the rear. I pulled the codes and there's an error stored, and the ride feels incredibly bumpy at 235000 km. I'm suspecting a defective control rod on the sensor. Has anyone else run into something similar with the height control system?

That's rough. I had a similar issue with my old Volvo XC90. The air suspension went haywire, causing the ride height to be all over the place and the headlights to misbehave. Was the error code you pulled related to the height sensor or the control module?

Good to know I'm not alone! The error points towards the height sensor. Did your Volvo throw a similar code, and did you manage to pinpoint the defective component? I'm trying to narrow down if it's the sensor itself or the linkage.

Yep, the Volvo code also pointed to the height sensor, but in my case, it was the sensor arm itself that had snapped. Given that you suspect the control rod, it's worth a close inspection. Honestly, I'd recommend getting it checked out at a workshop; suspension issues can be tricky and dangerous to DIY without the right equipment.

Thanks for the insight! I appreciate you sharing your experience with the Volvo. It sounds like a workshop visit is the safest bet to properly diagnose and fix the issue. I’ll post what the solution is. It was the control rod on the sensor, as suspected. Cost me 110€ to replace it.
